Committed


Romans 6:8 

8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.

 Committed

 

Christ committed His Spirit back

into the Hands of God the Father.

When we die with Christ to self

we have to do the same.

Our death will set us free

into the realm our “new” Father,

Who will love and lift us up

and make us live again.

 

To be resurrected in Christ

into His Marvelous Splendor.

In God’s spiritual Life we then

embrace Eternal Life.

Christ alive so I may live

empowered now to witness.

A complete change in me,

that hungers to be like Christ.

 

Empowered to go through death,

always coming out alive.

His Life in us will blossom

for it is God we now possess.

Well! He possesses me, I see,

but I can call Him my Father.

Belonging seems to work both ways

and I fully trust the rest.
